  • Paul Litterick,

    Way off topic, I know, but somebody had to say it.

    Say it loud, brother. I was somewhat disconcerted to learn about this from the Independent in Ingerland. It is more than a little embarrassing on a global stage.

    On the other hand, fools have been parted from their money, which has gone to the suffering animals. So it turned out nice again.

    Sorry not to have responded to some of the genius-like comments on this thread. Alas, I have been away working as an extra in a television series -- playing the important role of Passenger in Helicopter.

    I was devastated to return to Christchurch and discover that I had missed out on buying those ghosts. So I would be very keen to make up for my disappointment with shares in your grandmother, Philip. Also, which bridge are you selling? Is is one of those big bridges across the Thames?

    By a strange co-incidence, I'm the owner of the bridge that connects Auckland and Sydney. It's known as the Auckland Harbour Bridge in Auckland; and the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Sydney -- but I just think of it as 'the bridge I bought off that guy in the pub'. Would you be interested in a swap? I have a receipt to prove ownership.

    I do love this Brian Rudman piece. He pokes holes at faith and then of course quotes from a fake source.

    * An earlier version of this story included a quote attributed to Brian Tamaki's website. This was mistakenly taken from a fake website.

  • Philip Challinor,

    The bridge is the one between the living world and the dead, and my Nigerian grandma is stuck on it until her body is properly buried with all due rite and ritual. Her soul must remain half-way between worlds, suspended above the chasm of oblivion, until I acquire sufficient funds to feel amenable to taking her remains out of the fridge.

    Offers of spiritual wealth will be scorned; cash or PayPal only.

  • Ross Mason,

    That will be a dead end bridge you want.

    Try this

    The other side - the really really bushy side was probably the settlers version of hell so we must be pretty close to satisfying the customer.
